I am trying to export point cloud from a Obj mesh with normals and color information.

Just Points can be exported with `vtkOBJReader` as -

```auto
reader = vtk.vtkOBJReader()
reader.SetFileName(obj_file)
reader.Update()
polyData = reader.GetOutput()

points = vtk.util.numpy_support.vtk_to_numpy(polyData.GetPoints().GetData())

```

Could someone please help in use of `vtkOBJImporter` to load texture data and export point coordinates along with normals and RGB values in Python?
